Troops in theatre deserve the best

The diverse spectrum of challenges within the concept of the Three-Block-War of high-intense combat actions, peace keeping missions and humanitarian relief opera-tions demands a versatile military vehicle. Within the major threat situations of today’s world, it must also provide superior capabilities in classical face-to-face situations. Boxer, with its unique modularity, offers the highest flexibility to fulfil this wide spectrum of diverse mission requirements with survivability and the highest reliability and growth potential – today and in the future.

Boxer is a truly modular vehicle providing multiple functions for its users, several communication interfaces for participation in network enabled warfare and diverse mission relevant capabilities. The flexibility of its modu-larity allows Boxer to be easily adapted to meet diverse mission requirements, in rapidly changing circumstances and global environments. Boxer has impressive integral growth potential so that future emerging military roles and changing requirements can be met, without degrad-ing the vehicle's capabilities such as mobility.

Perfect solution for a successful mission

Key features of Boxer are:

• Protection – Survivability without compromise.• Payload – Integrated growth potential.• Performance – Mobility and reliability under extreme

conditions.• Modularity – The mission changes, so does Boxer.

Successful deployments into theatre like Afghanistan have proven the vehicles capabilities.

The concept and the design of Boxer have been tested, qualified and proven by official Services, according to the requirements of four nations. Shortly after delivery of the first vehicles, Boxer was deployed into theatre and has proven its capabilities and reliability under harsh environments, in dangerous situations and difficult operations. It has also proven and demonstrated its per-formance in further trials and manoeuvres in Australia, Qatar, Norway and Lithuania.

The thorough development resulted in a first batch of 272 Boxer vehicles for Germany starting in 2009 and 200 Boxer vehicles for the Netherlands. Based on the positive experience, Germany ordered a second batch of 131 vehicles, followed by Lithuania ordering a total of 91 vehicles. Therefore, 696 vehicles in 14 different versions of Boxer are have already been contracted up to now and more are about to come.

Protection

The major priority in the design of Boxer is to provide the highest level of protection for both vehicle occupants and vehicle systems as well. The modular design of the multi-layer floor concept and the safety cell provide a unique overmatch behaviour that minimises the “catastrophic kill” risk from mine and IeD attacks. The underlying protection philosophy of Boxer provides a multi-hit capability as well as sufficient residual mobility and functionality (e.g. communication, self-defence) after attacks. Boxer pro-vides low acoustic, infrared and radar signatures, along-side a collective NBC overpressure system already in a standard configuration.

The payload capacity of Boxer allows for additional growth potential in the future. even integrating today’s mission equipment and a weapon station does not com-promise the vehicle‘s mobility and protection. The growth potential allows for system upgrades or additional armour to cope with evolving requirements during the lifetime and to meet future military roles without degrading the mobility performance.

Typical combat weights range from 31.5 t up to 38.5 t, allowing for impressive future growth.

Payload

• Proven protection against ballistic threats - Highest protection level in its class against heavy

machine guns, automatic medium calibre machine cannons, bomblets, artillery fragments.

- Crew compartment completely covered by a spall liner. - optional active and passive protection systems against

e.g. rPG7.

• Integrated state-of-the-art protection against mines/ IeD

- resistant against all kinds of AP and AT mines under wheel and chassis.

- Crew and automotive parts protected against IeDs with heavy blast at short distance on side and rear.

- optional protection kits against IeDs, eFPs or mines with eFP and heavy fragments (e.g. TrMP6/7).

• Modular mounting of versatile protection systems - Standard mountings and patterns to fix alternative

pro tection elements and meet customer specific require ments.

- Passive armour (including ceramics), reactive armour and active systems can easily be mounted/demounted.

- easy adaptation to different threat scenarios and inte gration of future technologies.

• Unique capacity – maximum interior - 14 m³ protected volume (17.5 m³ with higher roof). - 13.5 t payload without compromising mobility and

protection.

• ready for the future - Sufficient growth potential in terms of weight and elec-

trical power. - A modular approach allows easy upgrading even at

subsystem level. - Upgrade of Drive or Mission Module only, without

affecting the complete vehicle.

• remarkable payload allows for customer tailored solutions

- Demanding equipment, armament and even specific variants can be integrated.

- Customer tailored solutions focusing on Mission Module only without necessarily affecting the common Drive Module.

Survivability without compromise Integrated growth potential

Boxer is able to follow a modern Main Battle Tank cross-country. The mobility requirements were qualified and proven in-service at the vehicle’s combat weight (with the highest level of protection) and under the most extreme environmental conditions. rapid strategic mobility in a combat-ready configuration is ensured by the capability of being deployed by road, train, sea or air. By separating the Drive and Mission Module, even more flexibility is being provided.

The unique concept of interchangeable Mission Mod-ules on a common Drive Module forms an ideal basis for introducing diverse national requirements and allows easy exchange of Mission Modules. Boxer’s modular design ensures the flexibility required to create a com-plete family of vehicles on a common basis and offers advantages with respect to new designs, development, testing, production, logistics and growth potential.

Several variants for three nations have already been developed and qualified. Customer tailored Mission Modules are easily achievable without designing a com-plete vehicle.

Performance Modularity

• Best of two – tracked and wheeled - Mobility performance of tracked vehicles off-road, and

wheeled vehicles on-road. - Independent suspension for each wheel. - Steering mechanisms in protected positions above the

wheels. - Permanent 8x8-drive with 4 axle differentials

(2 inter-axle differentials and 2 standard differentials). - Central tyre inflation system. - Combat wheels with integrated run-flat system. - 27" tyres. - Superior residual mobility.

• High performance power pack - Powerful V8 multi-fuel engine with an output of up to

600 kW. - Highest performance and mobility both in heavy ter

rain and at maximum weight.

• Modular principle - exchange of Mission Modules in theatre within

< 30 minutes (“click + drive”). - Pooling concept for different Mission Modules provides

flexibility in procurement and deployment. - easy removal of Mission Module provides for additional

transportability, flexibility and enhanced maintainability.

• easy to maintain - Modularity on system and subsystem level. - exchange of power pack within < 20 minutes under

field conditions. - operating the power pack outside the vehicle for

maintenance. - eased access to all automotive parts from above –

avoiding special facilities. - Minimized down-time due to dedicated Line replace-

ment Units. - retain flexibility – while Drive Module is maintained,

use of Mission Module with another Drive Module.

excellent mobility and reliability under all conditions the mission changes – so does BOXer

Remote ControlledHowitzer 155 mmThe mission changes – so does BOXER

BOXER Remote Controlled Howitzer 155 mm (RCH 155) combines long range intense firepower and the fully auto-mated Artillery Gun Module with the protection and mobility of the combat-proven wheeled armoured vehicle BOXER.

BOXER RCH 155 can fire up to 8 rounds per minute to a range of up to 40 km with standard ammunition is achiev-able with BOXER RCH 155. An increased range of up to 56 km is possible with Very Long range Artillery Projectiles (VLAP). To integrate the 155 mm L52 Artillery gun, BOXER makes use of its growth potential of up to 38.5 t.

The Artillery Gun Module of BOXER RCH 155 is unmanned and provides automated navigation and fire control, fea-tures fully automated gun laying and projectile loading. The vehicle does not need to be equipped with hydraulic sup-ports for firing. This leads to the reduced crew of 2 (driver, commander) and provides a major advantage in terms of fast relocation during operation – shoot and scoot – with a minimal crew size.

BOXER RCH 155 provides outstanding tactical and strategic mobility for efficient actions. Its high precision and accuracy make it ready for modern ammunition. The combat load can be up to 40 rounds and the projectiles and crew are pro-tected to the same level.

The survivability of the vehicle and its crew has been a key characteristic and therefore given highest priority. The Gun Module can turn endlessly and be positioned n x 360° which leads to an area coverage of 5,026 km² (9,852 km² with VLAP).

DriverTraining VehicleThe mission changes – so does BOXER

BOXER Driver Training Vehicle (DTV) provides realistic train-ing for drivers of all BOXER variants and it permits the high-est level of quality and safety of driver training. BOXER DTV consists of a standard Drive Module and the Driver Training Mission Module. Weight and ride behaviour completely match the characteristics of the Armoured Personnel Carrier.

Occupant protection is a feature in BOXER DTV which pro-tects the crew sitting in the driver training cabin. In the event of a roll-over accident, the seats in the driver training cabin are quickly retracted into the Mission Module in a controlled manner.

BOXER DTV can carry a crew of 4 besides the driver. The instructor and one crew member (e.g. the driving test exam-iner) are seated in an elevated position in the glass enclosed driver’s training cabin to ensure the best possible view. Two other crew members are accommodated in the rear of the Mission Module.

The instructor can monitor the trainee driver via a duplicated control and display unit and override gear selection, brake or accelerator pedal of the driver’s station. Steering override is available as well as an option.

The electrical cabin equipment, such as windscreen wiper/ washer, windscreen heating, seat heating, etc. are operated via a digital control unit. The large glazed cabin, the mirror and camera systems ensure the instructor a sufficient field of view, including the immediate surroundings of the vehicle.

An additional air conditioner provides cooling for the cabin crew at high ambient temperatures.
